As far as I understand it, you give them permission to use the image on the SANParks gallery page. They dont expressly say that they retain the rights to use the image is they see fit. I don't copyright my stuff either generally but probably should do it.

You don't have to copyright it, you (the artist that made it) are the sole owner unless you have sold all the rights on it.
The photo's that are in the galleries or on the forum are submitted by you, so you have given SANParks the right to use them for that purpose, and only that one.
If they want to use them in a book(let) or any other publication they have to obtain the artists permission.

Not posting much here anymore, but the photo's you can follow here There is plenty there.

Feel free to use any of these additional letters to correct the spelling of words found in the above post: a-e-t-n-d-i-o-s-m-l-u-y-h-c

When one moves the mouse over the picture, the screentip indicates the photographer(or one who submitted it) as well as the description. Thats fine...but when one right-clicks to obtain the picture properties etc. Voila!! - it says: Copyright 2005 - SANParks

Being positive as I am, I hope this is the way SANParks protect the picture from being copied/downloaded by any viewer, thus protecting MY right
